For more info... | The New Survey Is Here! We're as excited as the young Steve Martin was in "The Jerk" when the new phonebooks came out. With good reason!KeepItQuerque - buy local has just released the result of a study commissioned to Civic Economics on the impact of shifting our spending to Local businesses. You've heard us saying that our dollars do more work at home when we buy local. Now, thanks to Civic Economics, we have proof! Key points: 1) 287%. That's how much more your dollar recirculates right here in the Albuquerque area economy when you buy from a local retailer rather than hitting a chain. 2) 254% That's how much more your dollar recirculates right here in the Albuquerque area economy when you buy from a local restaurant rather than hitting a chain. 3) $179 million additional dollars in the local economy every year assuming you shift just 10% of your purchasing from chains to independents!

More about Lucy Rosen and SmartMarketing Communications Maximize Your KeepItQuerque Membership When was the last time you reviewed your KeepItQuerque member directory page? We recently took a quick glance at the directory and saw many members have not fully developed their pages. Most of us are aware that our "organic search" benefits from a variety of connections on the web. Connecting to a Blog and to a video hosted on a separate site helps your search. Did you know a "dot org" connection is a very powerful connection? Because a "dot org" directory isn't a "commercial" listing the search algorithms are (currently, anyway!) giving them more weight. So, while we're pleased to have each and every one of you on our list we feel many of you aren't getting "full value" from your membership. Did you know you can have a very attractive web page on the directory? KeepItQuerque Member LifeROOTS, Inc. has done a very effective job of maximizing their page. They've added a video to their directory listing as well as a map link so their customers can easily find them. Some of your fellow KeepItQuerque members can help with your Blogging and your Video, too! With your Blogs, Videos and Social networking in place you can add these elements to your KeepItQuerque Directory listing easily by logging on at KeepItQueruqe.org. If you've forgotten your Username/Password there's a button to click and you'll get an e-mail. The directory is "menu driven" and if you can upload to Facebook you'll have an easy time with your Directory! Have fun! Calendar Events
